Now, this was an extremely great performance by a group I have never heard of! That's terrible on my end, but it's okay because we're here now! I appreciate you all telling me to watch this after we did the Pentatonix version!

If you step into the rabbit hole...it's a journey you will not regret...live performances are great
Couldn’t agree more!
Yes!! 👏👏👏👏
Hmmm. To me there are some official videos that can't be missed due to their creativity (ex: Don't stop me now, I want to break free, One Vision, I'm going slightly mad, The miracle, Who wants to live forever and of course Bicycle Race :)
@@nanner3200 l love all their videos, but live is great
@@kathleenohare8770 I guess I was more pointing out that Queen live is amazing.....but there are a few videos worth watching. Really, although I'm not on YT, I like watching both :D And some videos do stand out
How has someone got through life never hearing of Queen? They are arguably the best group in history!
It just depends on what you are raised on musically ma’am… lol 😂
@@ABtheKreator haha, true, being British, however, Queen is part of our national identity. Freddie Mercury is an icon of epic proportions
@@DnDAddictUK Also, most people who say they don't know Queen's music actually know some of their songs but just don't know it's Queen.
@@DnDAddictUK It's the same as someone saying Oh yeah, Paul McCartney...wasn't he in Wings.....completely ignoring the Beatles!
Well someone can get through their entire life without hearing about many, many things at his age. Try and remember that and encourage his curiosity and help him understand how really great, much of our past was, and maybe his generation will keep it going. It's simply the best, learning about our past. Peace. 🙋☮️✌️🎅
The opera part of Bohemian Rhapsody always, without fail, shocked new listeners out of their shoes 🔥🔥🔥
Agreeded, I had to call the radio station I was so amazed/confused!
i always thought, that's when he's on trial.
Freddie Mercury was nothing if not flamboyant and fabulous. His vocal range was incredible. It's just amazing that he's been gone for 30 years. It doesn't feel like it. We lost a rare gem with his passing.
The best and the coolest 🤟🍻
I absolutely can’t get enough of first reactions to this song! Watching people go from pure confusion into loving it is just great! 🤣 I grew up on Queen…there SO MUCH MORE from them that’s ICONIC!!! 👑💗
Side note: If no one has told you yet the lead guitarist, Brian May, is also an actual astrophysicist. He has worked on space programs in the UK. Also, his first guitar was one he and his father built together in their garage.
Every single song Queen ever made is a masterpiece. Listen to EVERYTHING! You won't regret it for a second. Quite simply the greatest band EVER!
The guitar Brian Mays is playing is called the Red Special. Brian and his Dad made it in the early 60's when he was a teen. The neck is made from wood from an old fireplace mantel.
Queen's record sales range from 170 million to 300 million records, making them the world's best-selling music artists.
Queen is: Freddie Mercury-piano/vocals, Brian May-guitar/vocals, Roger Taylor-drums/vocals and John Deacon-bass/some back vocals...they formed in the 1970's, they are a British band and you've heard their music in movies, t.v.shows, sports, games and commercials...WE WILL ROCK YOU and WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS are just two of their songs...this video was the first of their kind, no auto tune in the days of Queen....all four members wrote songs, so there is a versatility with their music...check out SOMEBODY TO LOVE, live at Montreal....
Brian May is also DR Brian May. He has a Doctorate in Astrophysics & helped with using space dust to measure the size of our galaxy. He was also a consultant on the satellite we sent past Pluto and beyond! In fact, every member of this band had higher education! Freddie - Art & Design; bass player - Electric Engineer; and drummer - Pre-Dental. Intelligent & Talented = Queen! 💖
Ohhhhh nooooo snap!!!! I can’t wait til I hear those again!!! Had no clue
@@shilohauraable ohhh you all really know this group!! This is awesome man 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
They’re INCREDIBLE!!!!!🥰
Don't forget Another One Bites The Dust and Fat Bottom Girls
FYI… this was the very first music video! Queen was so far ahead of everyone else ❤️
They were also all college students.
Brian May, the lead guitarist is a Dr. of Astronomy. Roger Taylor, the drummer, was a Dental student, John ‘Deaky’ Deacon was in Electronics, and Freddie Mercury was in Art & Design.
Big facts 🙌🏾🙌🏾🔥🔥🔥🔥
This style of dressing is '70's rock glam. Freddy does it well!

I'm glad you tried the original version. It will increase your audience.
Yes, you should explore Queen.

If there's ever a doubt, just know Queen did it first. Have a great day.
I got into the Queen rabbit hole back in 1996, and never went back. Thanks dad for showing me their music when I was 10
You are viewing history. This song is masterpiece like none other. No comparison to it...nowhere. I never grow tired of it. Thanks much. Love you Freddie ❤❤❤🎵🎵
"Just let me know any information I need to know about Queen" LoL 😆
OMG WILLY WONKA! I damn near choked on my coffee. You're a riot. Queen is my error of music. So many hits. Somebody To Love, The Show Must Go On, We Are The Champions, Another One Bite's The Dust, We Will Rock You and many more. Loving the channel so far😎
I was like yes that is an accurate description of queen.
Same. If Willy Wonka was a band, he'd be Queen." I laughed so hard.
As my daughter says, "I'm dead."

Adding to my comment below: I have watched every reaction vid for Live Aid I have encountered. Some of the them I have watched multiple times just to see the reactors’ jaws drop and their eyebrows rise. And that’s only Live Aid.
Love watching people discover the genius of Queen. Miss you darling Freddie! RIP! Best music ever live. Btw Freddie studied art and design. He created the white silk costumes here and also the Queen badge cover on their first albums.
Freddie Mercury was everything & more.
I have gone down a rabbit hole today listening to dozens of your reactions . I am always so pleased when people let go of their preconceived notions of a particular genre of music. Thanks for opening your mind to different music. Thank you for sharing your reactions . If you haven’t had a chance to see Susan Boyles Audition on Englands Got Talent… you may enjoy. Another example of people making assumptions wrongly before listening . Have a wonderful day 😊
Yeah! That’s why I made this channel to dig into all the music I would normally never even dream about. 🙌🏾😂🔥🔥🔥✅🙏🏾 Thank you
I know you have heard we will rock you at a sports event. That’s queen
Wow had no clue buddy thanks 🙏🏾 🔥🔥🔥🔥👀
This was a Rock Opera, fantastic and so creative.
Facts it’s 🙌🏾🔥🔥🔥🔥
I'm an old lady who grew up in the '60s, and I love, love your reactions! It makes my heart smile. Keep doing what you're doing. You are amazing!!!
Me too!!
I am 67 and just get a kick out of his reactions. He is adorable.❤
Me too.. I’m 57
Me too!
I’m 73! None of the music experts 👎🏼 thought this song would fly. They were so wrong 😂 . I don’t know anyone who doesn’t love it 🥰
You do realise this was nearly fifty years ago. Best group on the 🌏.
No I had no damn clue which is wild 🙌🏾😩🔥🔥🔥🙌🏾
Just about every single that Queen released was a hit.
Ohhhh boy!👀👀👀🔥🔥🔥
That really high note at 6:07 came from the drummer Roger Taylor who could sing better than a lot of lead singers. 😃
Welcome to the Queen's world! They created beautiful harmonies in the studios, but their live performances were on another level and Freddie Mercury with his unforgettable stage presence and crowd control put the crown on them. Please, check out Somebody To Love.
Which is wild asf and yes I’ll definitely check it out soon
Freddie is one of the most iconic vocalists and musicians of all time.
I seeeeeee why now lol 😂
This song by queen was voted the best song of the previous century worldwide. I spent my last year in school listening to them. Over and over and over again. This is truly the best song ever. You cannot ever get tired of it.
YES. The experience! Glad you enjoyed it! Bring more, thank you!
The guitarist in the striped jacket is an ASTRO physicist or something like that. Other songs you might know by Queen is We Will Rock You & We Are The Champions. The lead singer is Freddie Mercury.
Yes, Brian May is an Astrophysicist.
His doctoral thesis was in relation to reflected light from interplanetary dust and the velocity of dust in the plane of the Solar System. He has also consulted with NASA between tours with Queen (currently performing with Adam Lambert). And yes, he still uses those old 1970 sixpence coins to play with. On the guitar he built, with his father, out of "household junk."
Thanks Kara 🙌🏾🔥🔥🔥

Welcome to the genius of Freddie Mercury. Still one of my favorites, just as it was when I was in high school

It's always amazing to watch someone experience Queen for the first time. Especially Bohemian Rhapsody. It's almost always life-changing.
Great reaction! Yeah, I too am of the Queen era, they were so special! Another One Bites the Dust, We are the Champions for sure!
Total masterpiece, will go down in history. Your reaction, love ❤️ it 🤩 you’re simply the best 👍

@@CrashCourseFarm lol ok thanks
They were the FIRST to do this sort of video,Long live QUEEN
Queen was "the band" at the first Rock in Rio in 1985. Did the "show" at the Live Aid even with all other bands and singers, but they were the one who, until now, is remembered at the Live Aid.
Straight to the point - Queen is the best band so far and it is a pity that Freddie had passed away, but remains the beautiful songs to keep them alive in our minds and heart !
Oh wow thank you for the info buddy
This is nothing short of a masterpiece.
True Russell 🙏🏾🔥🔥🔥
"I want to be free" "We are the Champions" Queen is iconic!! "Another One Bites the Dust" you'll NEEVAH regret listening to any of their songs...😊❤
Oh ok thank you 🙌🏾🔥🔥
I had the privilege of being a teenager in the 80's and had the opportunity to see them live one time. One of the greatest bands of all time. I introduced my now 21 year old son to queen when he was 10. He wanted to see them live, I had to tell him Freddy Mercury died 10 years before he was born, he was crushed :)
That's how I felt when I found out Gene Kelly died 5 to 10 years before I discovered him.
Oh wow that had to be great stuff
@@super_siri oh wow 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
@@ABtheKreator indeed it was my friend ;)
Poor little guy. We know how he feels. Good for you for showing him what real music/talent is

"Somebody To Love" (live Montréal 1981).
It's a beyond amazing.
Queen is just too good to describe.
Can’t wait lol

@@reggaelion86 🙌🏾🤣
You've now been Freddie'd. You're in for a great experience. Queen were phenomenal, both in the studio and live in huge venues with a hundred thousand fans. I saw them live three times. I remember every minute of every performance.
Welcome to the world of Queen. This was the lead singer’s, Freddie Mercury, baby. He decided to mix rock and opera to change things up. Keep watching Queen. You’ve definitely heard them!
Haha thanks and I’m sure I have
Queen: We Are the Champions
Thanks for checking them our bro, yeah Queen is 1 of the best old school rock groups, Freddie Mercury (Lead Singer) I believe had a 5 octave range, which is VERY impressive, Sadly he is no longer with us, but just a phenomenal Singer/Performer! … i’m sure you have heard the song “We Will We Will, Rock You! … it gets played at sporting events a TON, that is Queen as well! … check out a few of their songs if you get the chance! … Great/Funny review as always! … Cheers!
Wow thank you buddy 🙌🏾🔥🔥🔥
Queen is awesome. Freddie Mercury is a legend. There will never be another like him anywhere.
A MUST, QUEEN LIVE AID.
I KNOW FOR A FACT, YOU KNOW AT LEAST 2 SONGS ON IT.
WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS
WE WILL ROCK YOU. OJ BRO🔥💯
Welcome to Queen. They're great.
I'd be willing to bet you know some Queen songs but you dont know they're Queen who sang them. That's very common.
My suggestion is to do Somebody to Love, Live from Montreal. It's considered one of the best live performances ever.
If hes American he will know will will rock you we are the champions & boe rap but for some reason think they are cover versions of US songs its weird but seems to be a belief that queen are covering these songs.
I LOVE "Somebody to love"!
Ok thank you for those suggestions 🙌🏾🔥🔥
@@RK-zf1jm ohhh yeah I can’t wait
@@karylkline6442 👀
Queen has always been my favorite.
Yes.. explore any and all queen music... Freddie does not disappoint! I'm shocked at anyone who hasn't heard of them!
“If Willy Wonka was a band” 🤣🤣🤣
AB you crack me up! I said earlier I’d go see Batman just to watch you watch it. Heck I’d even pay for your ticket AND buy your popcorn if you wore one of those jumpsuits to the theater!! 😂
Lmaoooo ok! Say less 🙌🏾😂🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
If you have gone to a school game of any kind, you've heard Queen music or lyrics at least. We Are the Champions, and We Will Rock You, are Queen that have made their way into everyone's lives. Best rock band ever.
Ohhhhhh ok ok gotcha
Freddie gets up from the piano " lead singer is cold! " yes! The great Freddie Mercury ! I guess I just figured there was no one on this planet that didn't know Queen, and Freddie ! How can you live and never heard this song
The most fantastic front man in the history of rock. Freddie's voice was unique.
Man that’s a fact!!!!! 🙏🏾🔥🔥🔥🔥
SO GLAD you reacted to Queen's original video of "Bohemian Rhapsody". It is SO iconic! They have a lot of songs you would probably enjoy. Two of my personal favorite Queen songs are "We Are The Champions" and "We Will Rock You". And yes I am one of those "mature" Queen fans that rocked out to their music back in the day, and I thoroughly enjoy your reaction videos! I love to see younger people discovering the great music that I was fortunate enough to grow up listening to. I look forward to seeing many more of your reaction videos!
Yeah, We Will Rock You is an awesome song my (dad's) generation loved so much. (I lie in parentheses.)
Ohhhhh yes those are coming also Pamela 🙌🏾🙌🏾🔥🔥🔥🔥
@@richardwilson5560 I can’t wait 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🔥
Oh boy have the older generation of us got some music to introduce you to if you don't know who Queen is. You may not know it but you've heard at least 2 of their songs at some point in your life.
You right! I might be old, but I had the best music 🎶!!!
I had the same thought - he may not know the name, but there's no way he hasn't heard at least 2 of their songs in his life.
Lmao I’m here to learn 🔥🙌🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
@@theirishslyeyes 👀👀 this is definitely true now to find out which songs
@@ABtheKreator you've definitely heard, we will rock you, we are the champions, another one bites the dust.
This will be the start of a mind and music blowing experience! The posters here have given you great information and advice. My advice to you as you expand your world...
1} For a lot of Queen music you should listen to the studio version and any live performance next. That is a chance to experience the difference that is Queen live and improving on what you find so mind blowing to begin with.
2} They are multi-talented and the songs that Brian and Roger sing are gems in their own way, because of the out of this world vocals of Freddie you will find that either one of them could have been a lead vocalist on their own.
3} Lace them up, because it's going to be a hell of a ride!
You absolutely positively without a doubt watch the Queen Live Aid performance.
Yes! Thank you for reacting to this so quickly. Obviously the performance speaks for itself. This band paved the way for experimentation in rock music and videos. The list is endless of the very best of the best guitar players who was determined to take a shot at playing the legendary guitar pieces from Bohemian Rhapsody. It's more than their name that suggests royalty. Every generation from the 70's on has discovered Queen and been awed by what they see and hear. Their us a whole string of UA-cam videos of choirs, workshops, people at conventions, large business weekends, you name it and they gather together to sing this iconic song. There are videos of giant crowds in stadiums singing this while waiting for a concert or sports event to begin. One of my hands down favorite videos is Somebody to Love live at Montreal 1981. Freddie's vocal runs are insane and it always brightens my day to watch it. Like Pentaholics, Queen fans are DEVOTED, enthusiastic and will eagerly share unlimited bits of history and trivia to help you understand what made the band so special. For me- I love Queen, I love PTX so it's a win, win situation. You react to either of them and I will be here ♥️
One of the greatest (if not THE greatest) rock songs of all time. An absolutely iconic classic from an era when music was gooood!
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥👀
I hear ya anything from the 60's to the early 2000's was the best for music ❕❗
@@PurpleCinnamon-Land-Of-Misfits 👀👀
There is a big Queen army and im part of it so many videos to watch live on stage so many great songs please more Queen you wont be sorry
Lol ok ok coo!!! Can’t wait
Still can't believe people haven't heard this iconic band and song.
So glad to see you experiencing Queen. In my opinion , to get like a little mini concert of them just to know some of their music and to see one of , if not the best show they ever performed , watch Queen's performance at Live Aid in 1985 , it showcases their talent, their music and how Freddie could just captivate an audience ...you will see why so many fell in love with the talent of Queen and lasts still today ...... wonderful reaction , loved it and looking forward to more !!
I cant believe you havent heard of Queen. Ever been to a football or basketball game.and heard We are the Champions or We will Rock you? Freddie Mercury is a Legend ! There is a a movie about his life and I think its on you tube.. They didn't have CGI back then either lol. Love watching your face.great reaction.
Freddie Mercury - best voice in rock history. R.I.P.
Killer Queen at Top of the Pops, is another good one to react to. Great song & more glam…
It's just Queen - from England & the lead singer was Freddy Mercury. You can try "Another One Bites The Dust". You might like that song. It amazes me how great of a job Pentatonix did performing this song with absolutely no instruments, as do all the acapella groups like Home Free and Voice Play. Thanks so much for doing this reaction. It's greatly appreciated just as you are my friend. Keep up the great work.
Including every note of that guitar 🎸 solo! Amazing! 💕
Pentatonix did a great job. They have a lot of technology that makes it far easier to record something like Bohemian Rhapsody, they had unlimited tracks for overdubbing. The drums, piano and bass was played live in one take on this song, because Queen only had 24 tracks to use, that is difficult and something you not see today.
Freddie, not Freddy…
Thank you for all the info
@@shilohauraable 🙌🏾🙌🏾
Oh yes you are about to go on an amazing discovery of the hits that are Queen. Without doubt one of the greatest musical exports of the UK. Freddie was a legend. There is a video taken before the start of a Green Dat concert and This song comes on while the group prpare to come on stage. The audience is maybe 100,000 people and everyone knows every single word to this song. Every single note. Its amazing to watch.
Ohhhhh boy!!! I can’t wait lol
This video was before MTV introduced music videos. The group was British and the name was very provocative as during their reign, people were just beginning to come out. There was a lot of controversy over whether their lead singer. Freddie Mercury was gay. The absolute musts after Bohemian Rhapsody: We Are the Champions, Under Pressure, Someone to Love, Another One Bites the Dust, and Radio Ga Ga.
Bohemian Rhapsody is considered one of the greatest rock songs of all time. The record label didn’t want to release it because it was just shy of 6 minutes long. No radio station would ever play a song that long. Great music company prediction just like when Sony dropped PTX a week after winning The Sing-Off.
The most iconic example of Queen is their 20 minute performance during Live Aide in 1985. It contains excerpts of many of their songs and demonstrates Freddie’s claim to being one of if not THE greatest showmen of all time. Freddie owned every audience when he preformed. He died of AIDS in 1991 at the age of 45. In the 80s an HIV diagnosis meant to start getting things in order because you had months to hopefully a few years to live. It was a death sentence.
I’m glad you’re beginning your exploration of Queen because not knowing about them is like not knowing the Beatles or Michael Jackson.
PTX received a big clap on the back when Brian May, guitarist for Queen, tagged the PTX version in his Twitter account. There could be no higher honor.
Wow!!!!!!!! Incredible 🙌🏾🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Ohhhhh I got some MJ COMING!!!!!!
We saw the video on "Midnight Special". Anyone remember that show? And Wolfman Jack? 🙂
@@bandmom3505 lol I surely don’t remember that at all lol 😆
I was 15 when this was released in 1975 and it instantly held my attention not easy to do to any Teenager but there they were on my TV screen stomping through the Music charts like they owned it….and they did for nine solid weeks the owned the number one spot in the charts imagine any other band doing that now, They had so many singles that I haven’t the time to write them all down now and a huge amount of Albums too, This is what is known as Rock Opera and appears on the Album A Night at the Opera, The Name Queen was not just because Freddie was Gay but because at that time it was outrageous and Freddie loved to outrage people, Freddie had a vocal range like no other he could do things with his voice that many other singers were green with envy, I had the privilege to see them live a few times one of the best was at Live Aid which is a must see another was at Wembley again for their Kind of Magic tour, This is a band you will grow to love enjoy your journey finding more amazing songs of theirs I envy you that journey I loved it.
Thank you for this comment 🙏🏾💙🔥🔥🔥
Now you know ! Queen is a unique, legendary group whose live shows are a performance experience 😅🔥 Love your sensitivity to sound and genuine reactions 💕 if you haven't yet, you're probably ready for Phil Collins, "In The Air Tonight" 😉
This is an epic song. I think you'll love Sombody to Love even more. Freddie's vocals are tremendous and pure 🔥
Big facts 🙏🏾🙌🏾🔥🔥🔥🔥
One of my favorite things in this world is seeing people experience Freddie Mercury and/or Queen for the first time. I feel extremely blessed and spoiled to have been able to grow up listening to this group in the 70s and 80s, while Freddie was still with us. The best Queen is live Queen, especially their Live Aid performance. And that was Freddie on a BAD day, since he had health issues with his throat going on at the time. And here, 30 years beyond losing Freddie, he's still wowing people. I agree with one of the previous commenters here... if you go down the Queen/Freddie Mercury rabbit hole, you definitely will not regret it. I highly recommend it, seeing as you enjoyed this masterpiece so much.
Ohhhhh yes we definitely getting into more!!!!! Thanks
Bohemian Rhapsody was written, in 1975, by the late Freddie Mercury (lead vocals and pianist), the falsetto vocals was provided by Roger Taylor (vocals and drums), the bass player John Deacon (white suit), the guitar solos is by Brian May PhD (guitar and vocals, with the striped shirt, playing a guitar he and his father made out of an old table top.) And no Autotune anywhere. All where from London, UK.
This group and this song, in particular, have been scrutinized, dissected, torn apart, and put back together again so many times, it is amazing the song has lasted this long. It was far too long of a piece for radio, not "rocky" enough for the "hippies" at that time, and contained far too many genres within a sing piece to be popular. Then along came the movie Wayne's World and everything changed. The popularity of this one song and of course, the group, took off to extreme proportions that no one could ever have imagined. I like your review because you enjoy the real part of the music that makes it what it is and that is how the sounds move around inside your head, back and forth, side to side, up and down. Thanks for being honest about this one.
Oh wow thank you sir 🙏🏾🙏🏾🔥
I am thrilled you reacted to Queen! You've got to do more Queen!! I recommend watching Somebody to Love, Live from Montreal first to get a taste of Queen live then watch the ENTIRE Live Aid performance. Love your channel!!
Thank you and more coming budddy
In the early/mid 70's when this came out, one of the programs that showed bands performing asked Queen to appear. Queen declined, but said they'd send them a film instead. This is what they sent.
Queen is my favorite band and my first ever concert experience when I was about 15. Because of some bad blood with the MTV folks, they stopped touring America. I caught them on their last tour of the US. There are so many hit songs. The Queen river runs deep. Please watch the Live Aid performance. It’s about 23 minutes long and worth every second.
Oh ok ok tank you!! I’ll add that now
If you enjoyed that, you should DEFINITELY watch the footage from Queen’s performance in the live aid concert from 1985!! They performed SO MANY of their iconic songs, and they also interacted with the crowd so well, there was a note they sang that’s famous- it’s called ‘ The Note Heard Round the World!’ If you want to go all out, you could check out the movie ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’ for some backstory
I was going to suggest the same thing!
Really any of the songs from that concert/set. That was the most iconic performance! And his crowd control is 100000% fiyah!

I'm so glad to see you have headphones for this one!
Bohemian rhapsody is one to watch. It tells their history and inside information. I’ve watched it more than any once
Yessss 🙌🏻 Really enjoyed this reaction, priceless. Please start the Queen journey. They were a great band, with a massive catalogue. Please check out some more, and their Live performances were amazing. May I suggest Stone Cold Crazy live at the Rainbow or One Vision live at Wembley. You can see the difference between longhaired Freddie and Freddie with the moustache. Very different styles!
Ohhhh yes it’s coming and thank you 🙏🏾
Loved the reaction! To answer your question about who hit the high note at the end of the operatic section it was the drummer Roger Taylor! He has a great falsetto. Freddie Mercury the lead singer is magic! He can sing anything! Well worth exploring their catalog and some of their live performances. Live Aid performance is a must!
Nice and thank you I’ll add these also
Glad you watched this. Now you see what a miraculous job Pentatonix did recreating this with no instruments. Queen is an English group and they have soooo many hits. Try We Will Rock You, it's a banger full of OJ.
Queen is one of the most beloved rock bands of the 70's & 80's! "The Show Must Go On", "Radio Ga-Ga", "Somebody to Love", "Fat Bottom Girls" to name only a few of their iconic songs! I look forward to your reactions to more Queen offerings!
Yes absolutely!!! Finally got to them 🙌🏾🙏🏾😩🔥🔥🔥
I followed you because of this reaction. I love watching people watch Queen for the first time. You definitely appreciated them. I'm going to share this with everyone. Excellent reaction.
Ohhh wow thank you Anna 🙏🏾🙌🏾🔥😩🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Congratulations! Your journey is just beginning. They have tons of great music.
Thanks and I can’t wait to get into them
I love how Queen is so masterful that you can hear something and it captures you, but then something else happens that moves you along to another mind blowing moment. Queen truly is the best ever and Freddie Mercury is a GOD!
The Greatest Song Ever Recorded... Queen - Bohemian Rhapsody.
